wedding reception ideas for any budget“A picturesque meadow at sunset is a beautiful spot for a late summer/early autumn reception,” says Scott Corridan of Corridan and Company Design in Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. “Seat your guests at vintage picnic tables, dressed with festive flea market table runners for a cozy look. (You can rent picnic tables at a party store; you'll need about eight for 50 guests.) Opt for linens in rich harvest colors such as avocado, burnt orange, golden yellow or chocolate. Finish each table with a grouping of glass canning jars filled with petite column candles or loose bundles of wildflowers.”

Great Grilling: “Serve delicious barbecue fare cooked over an open pit. Menu items to include: steak, ribs, chicken, salads and farm-fresh vegetables like corn on the cob, green beans, split peas and artichokes.”

Down-Home Drinks: “Serve wine in old-fashioned decanters. Also offer spiked lemonade, iced tea and water. Use big galvanized tubs to hold ice and bottles of beer.”

Step Lively: “Book a bluegrass group to provide lively music. Gather your guests for a home movie or photo collage of yourselves presented against a crisp white bed sheet.”

Decadent Desserts: “Have an enormous cheesecake topped with seasonal fruits. Or serve a big ice cream cake.”
